Meet the Characters

Here's the Episode List

The series follows obstetrician/gynecologist Mindy Lahiri as she tries to balance her personal and professional life, surrounded by quirky co-workers in a small medical practice in New York City. The character was inspired by Kaling's own mother, an OB/GYN. Mindy explores her life with the help of her co-workers: Danny Castellano, best friend and love interest, whose religious sensibilities and mother issues occasionally cause some tension; Jeremy Reed, English doctor, the dude Mindy slept with in Season 1, and who now heads the practice; Peter Prentice, another handsome doctor who was fraternity jock while attending Dartmouth; Morgan Tookers, wacky registered nurse who is also an ex-con because he was framed by his career criminal cousin; and Beverley, libidinous older woman who is the office receptionist and has a heavy Southern accent .
